Freemasonry and Politics — Boundaries and Principles

Why is politics not discussed in the Masonic lodge? The principle of neutrality and its importance for fraternal harmony.

Freemasonry is a secular, philosophical, educational, philanthropic and initiatory institution with over 300 years of history. It unites people of different beliefs who share common moral and ethical values.

Freemasonry is not a religion, nor a political party — it is a school for moral improvement, using symbols, rituals and allegories as tools for teaching universal truths.
